Summer Update ☀️
As the summer comes to a close, we are proud to reflect on a season of growth, learning, and impactful partnerships at Scholar Readiness. This year, we set out with ambitious goals, and thanks to our amazing team, students, and partners, we exceeded all expectations! Here are some of the incredible highlights from this summer:
🎓 Over 600 Students Engaged!
We had the privilege of teaching and inspiring more than 600 students from 40 different schools across the city. Through our unique and focused approach, we equipped these young minds with the skills they need to succeed academically and beyond.
🤝 Partnered with UA3
In collaboration with UA3, we worked closely with their SYEP interns, delivering 6 tailored lessons that not only sharpened their professional skills but also broadened their understanding of future career possibilities. This partnership was a powerful experience for everyone involved. With UA3, Scholar Readiness launched our high school x college programs.
📚 25 Sessions in Just One Summer!
Throughout the summer, we held 25 engaging and interactive sessions, all designed to push boundaries and foster meaningful learning experiences. Each session was a step towards empowering the next generation of leaders and scholars.

Testimonals
Dear Scholar Readiness, Thank you for offering such a great opportunity to help students learn better. The class design and content are superb, and students feel very much inspired by your enthusiasm! I especially appreciate mentors adjusting the delivery manner into a more language-learning-friendly setting, which is very considerate and caring!

Teacher from TNGS
At first, I thought it was just about taking an online class with foreign students. However, when l found out that we needed to open the mic and speak, l felt a little bit nervous. During the first two online classes, l was always praying not to be picked. After two classes, l finally felt relaxed. It’s really a good opportunity to join it!

Scholar Readiness has been an invaluable resource for students seeking guidance on their educational journey. The peer mentoring approach creates a supportive environment where students learn essential study and life skills while gaining the confidence to pursue their passions. The organization’s commitment to helping students succeed in high school and build a foundation for long-term success is truly inspiring. I’ve seen how Scholar Readiness empowers students to take control of their future, and I’m grateful for the positive impact they are making in our community.
